Talk Toto

[BlackWall]

Pretty basic questions, but just to get some conversation going; first off, that's pretty cool news about the new album, I hope everything ends up falling into place.

Secondly.. what are some favorite Toto albums/songs?

For me, their first, self titled album was pretty good. I like all three of the singles, and then "Girl Goodbye".. "Georgy Porgy" probably stands out the most from the album.

Oddly, I'm not a huge fan of "Hydra", but I do like the next album, "Turn Back". "English Eyes" is a favorite, along with "Goodbye Elenore" and "Gift With A Golden Gun".

"Toto IV".. Of course, Rosanna remains a favorite, but I don't really need to hear it too often. "I Won't Hold You Back" is a very good power ballad, and Luke really brings home the emotion.

"Isolation" .. I like "Stranger In Town", I know some people really dislike this one, but if I'm in the right mood, it's kinda cool. I also dig some of the songs that Fergie did lead on, like "Lion" and the title track. Lastly, I think Holyanna had potential, but it seems sort of like a rewrite of Rosanna, and it seems to build a little, but never really go anywhere.

"The Seventh One".. Alright, I have to admit, I like "Anna".. I also can get into "Stop Loving You" and "Pamela".

My favourite record will easily be Isolation, not even a contest. One of the best AOR-records of all times with one of my true favourite singers. Angel Don't Cry and Endless are masterpieces, Stranger in Town and Carmen are not far behind.

The Seventh One are my number 2 record, followed by Fahrenheit.
